  Generate secure multiword passwords/passphrases, inspired by XKCD

Relevant XKCDs (There's always one) 1 2. For passwords, we're switching to a passphrase in the future, ditching complexity requirements, and setting a 25-character minimum. This may break things if you have legacy applications. Password are really rated using a metric called entropy, which is calculated using [char set]^[length]. Increasing the length has a greater effect on entropy, and therefore the security of a password. XKCD style passwords can be generated using a site like this, or implemented in a local application by implementing this Github repo. Even knowing how passphrases are generated a 5-word passphrase generated from a list of ~16k words is equivalent to a 14-character password with upper, lower, numbers, and 6 symbols as a character set.
